Many of us choose the “guard dog” option over a home security system

These “domestic canine security and affection units” seem like the perfect solution-you get an affectionate new member of the family, and save the money you would have spent installing a burglar alarm. But can a dog really be an effective protector of your home?Some dog owners are proud of the way a young puppy guards, and boast about it to their friends. However, they will more than likely be sorry if they don’t check this behavior while the puppy is still young, as this may develop into aggressive behavior towards strangers in general, whether or not they are welcome in your home. This leads to bites, and possible lawsuits and/or being forced by the authorities to put down your pet. You must properly train your dog at the minimum age of 12 to 14 months that a few warning barks are okay, but any further aggression will not be tolerated. Most dogs judge people by their scent, and it is known that fear in humans produces a strong scent perceptible to dogs. The problem here is that you may have a welcome guest in your home whom is afraid of dogs, and will also send out this scent, obviously leading to aggression on the dog’s part. Many burglars are also dog lovers, who in many cases are actually welcomed by guard dogs, who sense no fear in the burglar at all! No fear = no guarding.

For some, it is necessary to board their dog while on vacation, especially if the vacation is expected to last more than one week. So unfortunately, the perfect opportunity for your dog to guard your home and its contents is lost, and your home is left unprotected.

Mans best friend or home security

For these reasons, it is not recommended to use a dog as the primary protector of your home and family. A properly installed and monitored security system will guard your home and family 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. The only thing it won’t do is jump for joy when you pull into the driveway. So call us today we can help 877.872.2235
